Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My child has been going to this nursery since 2020. He absolutely loves it! Staff are kind and friendly and really help your child to grow. They do lots of fun things with the children. Lots of arts and crafts that the children take home.
10/10 for me!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
In May, the nursery organised a basic life support training for parents which was delivered by two parents who were health professionals.
This training was the brainchild of the nursery in order to give us the necessary skills to support and protect our children.
As part of the training, the trainers
also covered various childhood diseases and how to prevent and treat them.
For this and many more reasons, 1st Friends Day Nursery has gone over and beyond what we pay for. Oh and before I forget, the nursery staff were in on the Saturday of the training to take care of our children while we were in the training. I can't thank them enough really. They deserve more than five stars.

Thank you.
I'm glad you found the training useful. As you know, we are always here for support and advice, with the odd training session thrown in.

My daughter has been with the nursery since she was 10 months old and she is due to leave this summer to start school.
First and foremost, our daughter has been nothing but happy there. She will always tell us about her day and the things she’s been up to. From when she was small, the staff would
tell us about her day, let us know if there were any issues. If she was to have toilet accidents, she would always be handed back to me clean with an explanation of what happened and when etc.
The variety of the activities they do is amazing. My daughter is always coming home with pictures and creations she has made!
The nursery also holds events such as a Christmas play, first aider courses and many more! It’s not just a nursery, you are just part of a little family there too.
For us as full-time working parents, the nursery has been nothing but flexible and accommodating for us and that we are very grateful for.
I am just gutted I didn’t find this nursery for my eldest son!

Thank you.
Can not believe how fast the time has gone. Tears will fall on her last day. However, we know she is ready to start her next adventure in school.
So, thank you for giving us the…read more
